Monday Musings: Begone...


begone: to go away, depart.  used especially in the imperative.


Begone Unbelief

Begone unbelief, my Savior is near,
And for my relief, will surely appear:
By faith let me wrestle with God in the storm
And help me my Savior, the faith to adorn
And help me my Savior, the faith to adorn.

Though dark be my way, since He is my guide,
'Tis mine to obey, and His to provide;
Though cisterns be broken, and creatures all fail,
The word He has spoken will surely prevail,
The word He has spoken will surely prevail.

Why should I complain of want or distress?
Temptation or pain?  He told me no less.
The heirs of salvation, I know from His word
Through much tribulation must follow their Lord,
Through much tribulation must follow their Lord.

Since all that I meet will work for my good,
The bitter is sweet, the medicine food;
Though painful at present, will cease before long
And then, O! how glorious, the conqueror's song!
And then, O! how glorious, the conqueror's song!

Begone unbelief, the Savior is here
Begone unbelief, the Savior is here 
Begone unbelief, the Savior is here 
Though cisterns be broken, and creatures all fail
The word He has spoken will surely prevail
The word He has spoken will surely prevail.
